What did you do to your Mk5 today?

Washed the car and fitted custom plates which I am still amazed were available. And fitted the s2tpp paddles which I'm still getting used to.

Ah...keeps me occupied

I bought a full size spare wheel for the Gt, bought some 7 mm MDF and cut a new floor on top of the new wheel, the floor is now 8cm higher but its hard to see the difference. Bought the wheel off Ebay and fitted a second hand brigstone tyre from the local tyre shop all up the spare only cost $150.

I drove to work and used the Stage 2+ 80-120 acceleration to effectively negotiate the passive-aggressive lane-blocking wankers that gather on the WA freeways around the city after 9am.

I (of course) am completely without fault.

Best! I thought about doing this the other day. Can I see some photos of your handy work?
